Do you have your old panel that you can do some comparison? I don't know much off-hand about the 500B or the 900B so this is just my opinion from comparing p/ns on the CaseIH site and having some cluster instrument board experience. I'll address the cluster instrument board only, I don't know if the whole dash is interchangeable. 1. The cluster board case is the same p/n as 500B, will fit right in the dash. 2. The cluster shown has a 0-60 psi engine oil gauge. The 511B oil gauge is p/n G45024, 0-30 psi. 3. The tachometer shown has a left to right pointer sweep. 500B tach p/n on CaseIH site is listed as G45022, that is right to left pointer sweep. 4. The 900B gas & amp gauges are the same p/n as 500B. Speedo p/n is last digit off, sweep & range is correct, would bet it will work ok. 5. Seller states the temp gauge line is cut (the capillary tube is cut) meaning the temp gauge is junk unless you can find a instrument repair facility that can repair it, cost will be $200 plus. Roger Hornbaker can retrofit an electrical temp gauge w/sender that will be accurate and look original. 6. On the tach & speedo drive turning freely doesn't mean the brass drive hasn't been twisted off the drag cup (common). Ask the seller if the pointer jumps when the drive is spun, not definitive but if the pointer doesn't move it is junk. Anyway, the short answer is no, it is not the same cluster but could be made to work with some gauge changes plus some bucks. I would recommend that if you are serious about a restored cluster or having yours repaired contact Roger. [email protected] Joe
